Francotyp-Postalia extends contract with Chief Sales Officer Andreas
Drechsler
Birkenwerder, 10 January 2011. The Supervisory Board of Francotyp-Postalia
Holding AG has extended its current contract with Chief Sales Officer
Andreas Drechsler until 22 February 2015. As CSO, Drechsler has headed up
global operations since February 2009. Together with his colleague Hans
Szymanski, he is advancing the ongoing strategic development of the
manufacturer of franking machines into a global service provider for
analogue and digital mail management.
In a statement, the Chairman of the Supervisory Board Prof. Michael
Hoffmann said: 'The FP Group is on the right path following the start of
its restructuring. By extending Mr. Drechsler's contract, we are
guaranteeing the continuity of the successful operative and strategic work
by the Management Board.'
CSO Drechsler commented: 'I see the extension of my contact as both an
incentive and an obligation to continue expanding the FP Group's
forward-looking position on the market. We will extend our lead in the
field of digital mail management, where we also have a strong partner at
our side in United Internet. At the same time, we will further consolidate
our global presence.' In 2010, the FP Group ensured its entry on the French
market for franking machines and founded sales companies in Sweden and
India.
In November 2010, the Supervisory Board extended its contract with CEO and
CFO Szymanski until 31 December 2014.
